Community for CRPG games and other RPG gaming discussions. Witcher, Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Baldurs Gate as well as indie RPGs (Underrail, Avernum, Space Wreck etc.). Focus is on CRPGs, but discussion around JPRGs, ARPGs and hybrid games with RPG components is also welcome.

Tabletop/pen & paper RPG discussion is not a good fit for this community. Check out !rpg@ttrpg.network for TT/P&P RPG discussions.

Memes are not banned, but the overwhelming focus is on discussions, releases and articles. Try and post memes (on an occasional basis) that would make people who don't like memes admit "OK! That was a good one!".

I'm not 100 per cent convinced we went through the full redemption arc.

I enjoyed the PC version of the game on Day One. It was a buggy launch, but not worse than a Bethesda game or a number of other games that are now remembered as classics (cough, cough, Witcher 3). If we really get into the weeds, CDPR's biggest sin was not cancelling the last gen versions of the console games.

If you focus directly on that choice, whether to scrap two platforms for one of the most anticipated games of the year, whether to deliver a sub-par product or cancel thousands of pre-orders and refund a shit ton of money at a time when the war chest is probably at its lowest... They made the wrong choice, but I get that it wasn't an easy one to make.
